My comments above speak for themselves, but I will reiterate here that if I needed an attorney to represent me and my advocate for my best interests in a personal injury, premises liability or products liability case, Jon would be a first choice. View More
Q. How do you know this lawyer?

I have known Jon for almost 25 years first as a very young college intern working under his supervision in his law firm, then as a newly admitted member of the Massachusetts Bar and his informal mentee soaking up his advice and experience and now to the present day as his colleague (though, often, still just a mentee). I have also worked with Jon to conduct pre-trial jury focus groups.

Jon is a skilled litigator and if I were in need of a personal injury attorney he would be my first choice.
